Hope you are all keeping well and in good spirit! Well, my last post seemed very promising regarding my channels and my blog , right? Once again, I am sorry I have disappointed you guys. If I tell you that, just when I thought I had it all under control, things happen and my whole routine had to change.

I had guest at home, so my crafting room was taken up. It is not the same when I have to share that room therefore projects were put on hold. Then at the same time, I was overwhelmed with work - my teaching job has proved to be quite challenging and when I had dealt with one challenge, along came another one - it was like a battlefield of challenges - I survived them all, yayyy!

You guys have no idea how much I miss crafting.Sometimes I imagine myself crafting, creating a project, with the ideas I have buzzing in my head.

Anyway, last Friday, we broke up for half term and I had a bad chest infection, sore throat, fever....YET AGAIN! Although I did not miss work, that Friday I came home and trust me, I was in so much pain that I slept for the next 15 hours! That did me lots of good though. I slept right through my week end and just drank lots of water, had soups and pain killers and by Monday, I could get up and make myself a cup of tea- I was so happy I could cry! Health is such an important part of our lives, we should never take good health for granted. My husband, as usual, has been great except for when he was re-heating my soup and added lots of water in it, so much I might as well, drint hot water instead! haha!

Anyway, I have upload my Failed attemp video of Home Made Gelli Plate. Gosh, that was such a painstakingly long process and I wasted money , like £9. However, I had no one but myself to blame as I did not follow the recipe. It called for equal amount of water and glycerine, did I do this? Nopes! Why? do you ask? Well, I thought that it did not matter. Hello?! That was so stupid of me, I know!

Anyway here is the video here , sharing my mistakes, as some of you still wanted to know what happened and what went wrong.

If you want to watch it in HD, then click HERE to watch on youtube. Leave me a comment if you have tried this too and whether it worked or not. You can also leave a video response if you wish.

Now, onto the VLOG video where I have addressed a few things, like asking you to leave me your Questions as I will do a 'Q&A' Video soon, Why I disabled Ratings on my video before and Why I have now enabled them, and some Bloopers for you at the end. LOL!

Anyway, leave me your question on youtube, under the video in the commen section. Please do not comment on here as I would like to have all the questions in one place. Thanks!

I hope that you all have had a good start of the new year and that getting back to routine at work hasn't been too hard:) - I Know it's been hard for me!

Anyway, this is a post to let you all know about some stuffs you have asked me.First of all, there are a few queries I have got over the last few weeks but, I haven't got the chance to really take a decision.You asked: Will I ever make a video where I introduce myself properly and show my 'face'?..! I say:lol..okay, when I got this request months ago, I didn't really think too much of it and that person didn't ask me again, so I thought, I got away with it.Then I had another one, then another one and then another.....until, somebody found me on mixed media workshop and said that finally she saw how I look like as she is one of my subscribers.I do understand you do want to see me one day, at least to see who is that person behind these cards and art work...But, I have issues infront of the camera! I did try to make an introduction but I found it so weird, so funny, like I have gone crazy and talking to myself, or talking to nobody! I tried my friends, but I couldn't upload the video, I was laughing all the times and I kept asking the camera to give me a last chance and I will be serious and I never did!So, on that one, I am still thinking about it....I might do one..depends on how many more requests I have on this one, hahahaha...

Next, you asked:Can you do a tour of your craft room and storage solution. And the last person who requested this was 'notoufu' on youtube and she is one of my subscriber as well.I say: The reason I didn't do this before was because I didn't have a craft room! I used to craft in my bed room. And yes, it was very annoying and messy and there were days where I wouldn't craft just so I do not have to get my stuffs out! But now I do have a small room which I share with my husband.He has a small tiny place in that room for his desk, and the rest of the room, is mine! lol(typical!)So yeah, I will do a video tour as soon as I get a chance.Maybe this week end? maybe...

You asked: Are you married? can we see your husband? I say: hahahahaha! Yes I am married and No you cannot see him.He supports me fully in my Art and Craft but told me clearly he doesn't want to be on the internet, the website, youtube and what not!He is hiding away from you people, lol. He told me I can do whatever I wish as long as I do not show him( don't ask me why!- he seems normal to me so I don't know what is his issue, lol). You asked: do you have any kids.I say: No, not yet.

Okay, I have answered the most asked questions but will also answer the other questions too. I work full time as a support staff and I only get to craft and create over the week end and I tend to reply to my emails and youtube queries during week end as well, so bear with me please.

422 subscribers on youtube is unbelievable.I know , it is not a lot, but for me , it is overwhelming as I started out making videos, to test if the training I had at work on 'How to use a webcam' has been understood. I filmed my first video with a regular webcam, can you believe it? And , then, I decided it was fun playing around with movie maker...then, I was excited about the fact I can share whatever I know with the world via video making, and it went on like this until every week or so, I get a few subscribers.And I do appreciate each and everyone of you who has subscribed as this shows you find my work interesting, and it gives me the motivation to carry on as making videos is very very time consuming. And I also want to be able to make you all happy, so any request about any cards or tutorials, let me know.

Requests received during the last week: Tutorial about the ink pad caddy I showed in my previous video and review about the big shot.I will do this as soon as I can.I am hoping this week end I will, but, I received two skirts from mango yesterday which I might have to go and return and if I do that on saturday, then I know, I won't be home until late evening! So, I just need a little favour from you all, just be a little more patient with me.

Lastly: I need to post two parcels, one for Buncobuddy and notoufu. I am hoping to do so on saturday morning.

Okay, now that I have written these down,it is clearer in my head what I have to do and also, you all know where I am heading for now.So, hang in there and have a lovely week end everyone!
